Servlets use php_fopen_primary_script() because (a) I'm lazy and "borrowed"
the code from cgi, and (b) I had problems when PHP was prone to change my
working directory on my. (b) has been solved by the virtual directory
support (Thanks Andi!), and taking a quick peek at the sapi_apache, I can
certainly use that approach instead.
